Copying Files Help.

08.31.2005

| 477 views |

        I'm probably not using this board right but hopefully someone can help me out.  I'm relatively new to perl... but I've done a little bit of batch scripting so I am used to how the language works and can learn easily.  My problem is that I need to copy a file from one drive and paste it into a folder on a different drive.  This process takes place daily and is followed by other tasks, but I need to know how to copy a file whose name is always different because there is a date stamp in the middle of the file name.  If anyone can help me out i'd be greatly appreciateive.  PLEASE HELP ME!
